Lynn Morris - Freight Train Blues lyrics

Your rating:

I was born in dixie in a boomer's shack,

Just a little shanty by the railroad track

Freight train was comin' I had to cry,

Hummin all the drivers with my lullaby

I've got the freight train blues (hee, hee, hoo)

Oh, lawdy mama got 'em on the bottom of my ramblin' 

shoes



And when the whistle blows, I gotta go

Baby don't you know

It looks like I'm never gonna lose

The freight train blues.



Well, my daddy was a fireman in a house out here

She was the only daughter of the engineer

Sweetheart of the brakeman, that ain't no joke

It's a shame the way she keeps a good man broke.

I got the freight train blues (hee, hee, hoo)

Oh, lawdy I got 'em in the bottom of my ramblin' shoes



And when the whistle blows, I gotta go

Oh mama don't you know

It looks like I'm never gonna lose

The freight train blues.



Well, the only thing that makes you laugh again

Is a south bound whistle on a south bound train

Ev'ry place I want to go

I never go because you know

Because I got the freight train blues (hee, hee, hoo)

Oh, lawdy mama, got 'em on the bottom of my ramblin' 

shoes
